The Sand or the Rock

How you conduct your life is how you will build on future events that will affect your life and even others.

Everyone’s life will be tested at times by the trials of life, and how you’ve established the real, deep growth of your past living will show up during these tough places.

Nobody can experience true peace or exert deep strength in those hard times unless you have built your life with the life of Jesus. He is the only true cornerstone that gives the supernatural strength that can withstand the tests that we all will face.

The Bible clearly points this out in Luke 6:47-49 where it says, “Whoever comes to me and hears my sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like. He is like a man building a house who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock, and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house and could not shake it for it was founded on the rock. But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently and immediately it fell.”

All lives are tested by difficult situations, times when you’ll either trust God or trust yourself. But only God is the solid place, the rock that will not be moved. As said, it will remain, and you’ll make it through. If not, then what you’ve built your life on will not hold up well enough.
